Thanks!

I'm already working on this. I'm not one for doing really crazy mods, but I do have somewhat of a multi-step plan in the works for the things that are important to me.

1. Replace all of my audio equipment. It was time for some changes anyway.

2. Replace my RJM clutch pedal. I have my old replacement helper spring and that will do for a few weeks, but isn't really a long term solution. Right now I'm just happy to be driving a Z again, but I'm not gonna lie...I forgot how much I dislike the feel of the stock clutch pedal in this car.

3. Finally get a FI exhaust. I've been wanting one for awhile, and I figure if I can place an order in the next few weeks with some luck I can have it delivered and installed before the fall.

4. If by this point the "upgraded" stock oil cooler is doing well I'll leave it alone, otherwise I'll have to get another aftermarket cooler. I don't track my car, but the oil temps in the first Z used to occasionally make me nervous when I was driving hard. I've been told that this has been improved in the '12 but I'm a little skeptical.

5. ...

6. Profit!

This plan is already in motion. I've spent the evening planning out a new audio system top to bottom and just finished placing orders for everything. I figure I'll tell my wife about it tomorrow and give her a couple days to get over the sticker shock. Assuming that she doesn't divorce me I should be ready to order a new clutch pedal by mid July and the exhaust by the beginning of August. Where I go from there has yet TBD.
